Using the natural elements to design a contemporary house is one of Kieran Timberlake’s project. By applying built in assembling method, the house is composed entirely of off-site fabricated elements and ready-made components. The awesome touch comes from the built in loblolly pines which scattered around the interior.
The assembly process begins with off-site fabricated floor and ceiling panels, termed “smart cartridges”. These smart cartridges distribute radiant heating, hot and cold water, waste water, ventilation, and electricity through the house. Fully integrated bathroom and mechanical room modules are lifted into position.
Exterior wall panels containing structure, insulation, windows, interior finishes and the exterior wood rain screen complete the cladding. The west wall is an adjustable glazed system with two layers: interior accordion-style folding glass doors and exterior polycarbonate-clad hangar doors that provide an adjustable awning as well as weather and storm protection.
